Error Cannot Find The File Flash.ocx
not find the file flash.ocx - FIX INCLUDED June 11th, 2009 | Author: Some Web User Could not find the file flash.ocx Some third party screen savers are designed to make use of the flash player software when running. A third-party screen saver is something that has been installed and is very different than the built in screen saver that is part of Windows. These screen savers are hard coded to reference the file flash.ocx and recent version of Macromedia's (Adobe) Flash application now name the same file flash9.ocx or even flash9c.ocx etc. Which results in the errors such as; "Could not find the file flash.ocx" cant find file flash.ocx cannot find file flash ocx I may also reference other versions such as flash.ocx flash9b.ocx, flash9c.ocx flash9e.ocx To fix this simple problem, you have two options. The first one would be to simply uninstall the screen saver. Once that is done the error will go away, but you will no longer have use of the screen saver. The second option is pretty straight forward, and will allow you to continue using your screensaver as normal You will need to find the flash9.ocx file and copy it as the file flash.ocx. (or download the attached flash.ocx) To do this: 1. Browse to the C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash folder. 2. Locate the flash9.ocx file and right click it and select copy. 3. Right click in a blank spot of the same folder and select paste. 4. You will then find you have a file called Copy of Flash9.ocx in the folder. 5. Right click the new file and select rename and rename to flash.ocx Once complete you should notice your screensaver functioning again and the error long gone.

Also, these problems may occur if some ActiveX-related subkeys are missing from the Windows registry. When Do OCX Errors Occur?

Flash is a programming language that many publishers use to create animations, games, and interactive programs for the web. Flash is also used for programs run locally on a users computer. To use these Flash based programs and web applets, the end-user must have Flash Player installed. One component of Flash Player is a file called "flash.ocx." If this file is missing or damaged, you may get an error message. There seems to be two root causes of this error. A description and solution for each follows: You receive the error message "Cannot find the file flash.ocx" every time you start your computer or each time you open your web browser (such as Internet Explorer). This is usually the result of a missing "flash.ocx" file caused by an incomplete installation of Flash. Here's how to remedy the problem: Download the Flash Player uninstaller from Macromedia. Save it somewhere convenient. Run the downloaded program and allow it to finish. Once the uninstall completes, restart your computer. Visit the Flash Player website and download/install the latest Flash Player version. That's it! You receive the error message "Cannot find the file flash.ocx" at seemingly random intervals or when starting a specific program (other than your web browser). First, perform steps 1-4 of the previous solution. This will insure you have the latest version of Flash Player installed. If you still receive the error message, continue with the steps below: Navigate to the folder "C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\". In this folder you will see a file named "Flash9f.ocx". Make copy of the "F
